Try xmodmap! I've extended the US-Layout quite a bit myself[1]. Have a
look at an (oldish) http://dhaller.de/linux/Xmodmap_105_us_dh.tar.gz
for ideas. I'll mail you my current (Xorg 7.x adapted) map if you
ask. I've since tuned it a bit and had to adapt it a bit to xorg and
such ...
And I've also got a keymap for the console (for kdb-1.0x / Kernel
2.4).
BTW: what slows me down most when not having my keymap is not having
ESC on the Caps key ;) Then having to use the DE-Layout (which is
broken by design, IMO). Then not having Umlauts etc. via Mode_switch
on an US Layout (well, depends if and how Compose is defined ;).
Anyway, I usually can and do use the plain US-Layout without much
thinking, except the ESC-not-on-Caps brain-glitch :)

[1] under the most recent xorg, I had to adapt a bunch of keycodes and
have problems with the "menu" key (I want that as Meta_R, the
Win-keys as Mode_switch / ISO_lvl3 / AltGr and both Alt as ALT),
no luck yet).
